We strongly recommend that you check-in online wherever applicable to save yourself time. Please aim to be in the departure hall in good time for boarding which begins 60 minutes prior to the departure. Kindly note, that airport security is extremely comprehensive and this can cause delays in reaching your desired boarding gate.

A: Airfares can change minute by minute based on demand and availability. Between the time of your flight search and actual booking, seat inventory in a particular booking class (fare) may sell out. Airlines then sell their available inventory at a higher price. We monitor these changes closely and make every effort to keep inventory and fares in our displays as current as possible.
A:Yes, you can. For instance, search for Dubai by typing "DXB", or, you can type in "Dubai" and you will find all the Airports available in the search Widget.
A:You can book Economy Class, Premier Economy, Business & First Class for International flights. In some cases you would not find First or Business Class results as these airlines might not be operating First or Business Class in these routes.
A:A direct flight is a point to point (city to city) flight that is either non-stop or has one or more intermediate stops, but with no change of aircraft. Changing aircrafts and terminals increases the duration of your journey. Direct non-stop flights are generally the shortest in duration followed by direct flights with stops.

A:A transit airport is one where you land for a break in your journey. You may or may not change aircrafts at the transit airport but you will definitely not be able to leave the airport when you're in transit. Your itinerary will give you the details about the duration of transit time.
A:In most cases, you will need to change terminals in order to board your connecting flight. Sometimes, the terminals are at quite some distance from each other and you'll need to set aside some extra time to commute from one to another.
